Micheth's friends, who knew his mad

ment. Rumor has flied the air with
railroad surmlses, railroad assertions

SHERMAN, TEX, Jan. 5.-The destruc-
ton by fire of J. B. Meyers floral estab-

ing was followed by another loss OF
greater magnitude, which occurred early
this morning. At $3.50 a. m. the alarm
was sounded, calling out the department
to the south end of the city, to the main
building of LIE Tallier's high-school,
which was on fire. The fire companies
reached the scene promptly, but with
their best efforts failed to save the build
ing, which burned very rapidly, being OF
wood, and the supply of water being very
limited. The building, with its appara-
tus and fixtures, is valued at $4,000, and
was not covered by insurance. The fire
is thought to have been the work of an
incendiary. Prof. LIE Taller has secured

the feasibility of building the

be built. If it is bull it will be great
assistance to Bryan and the surrounding
country.
